- In the drawings, widths and shapes of respective layers as shown do not reflect real scales, but are only intended to illustrate the content of the present disclosure.
- An embodiment of the present disclosure provides an in-cell touch screen, as shown in
Figs. 2-4 . The in-cell touch screen includes an upper substrate (not shown) and alower substrate 01 that are arranged to face each other, and a plurality oftouch electrodes 03 that are independent of one another and arranged on a side of thelower substrate 01 facing the upper substrate or on a side of the upper substrate facing thelower substrate 01. In the examples as shown inFigs. 2-4 , thetouch electrodes 03 are arranged on the side of thelower substrate 01 facing the upper substrate. - In the structural schematic view of the touch electrodes as shown in
Fig. 3 , thetouch electrodes 03 each correspond to a plurality ofpixels 02 in the touch screen.Fig. 3 illustrates an example in which eachtouch electrode 03 corresponds to 2Ć3 pixels and is provided with aslit 04 at a position corresponding to a gap between twoadjacent pixels 02. There is agap 06 between two adjacent touch electrodes 03.As shown in the Fig., thetouch electrode 03 has a slit structure at a region corresponding to each of thepixels 02. - As shown in
Fig. 2 , the touch screen futher comprises a strip-shapedfloating electrode 05 that is electrically connected with acorresponding touch electrode 03 and may be arranged at theslit 04 in thetouch electrode 03 and/or at thegap 06 between two adjacent touch electrodes. In an example, a width of the strip-shapedfloating electrode 05 is smaller than a width of theslit 04 and/or a width of thegap 06 so as to merely partially fill or cover theslit 04 and/or thegap 06. - In the in-cell touch screen according to embodiments of the present disclosure, the
slits 04 are provided at positions in thetouch electrodes 03 corresponding to the gaps between twoadjacent pixels 02, so that theslits 04 in alltouch electrodes 03 and thegaps 06 between thetouch electrodes 03 are uniformly distributed, thereby avoiding the defective problem of bright lines or dark lines appearing in the in-cell touch screen. - Further, the touch screen is further provided with the strip-shaped floating
electrode 05, which is electrically connected with thetouch electrode 03 and is arranged at a position corresponding to theslit 04 in thetouch electrode 03 and/or at a position corresponding to thegap 06 between twoadjacent touch electrodes 03. By providing the strip-shaped floatingelectrode 05 to partially fill theslit 04 in thetouch electrode 03, the problem of an effective area of thetouch electrode 03 being reduced due to providing theslits 04 in of thetouch electrode 03 may be mitigated. - In an embodiment, as shown in
Fig. 3 , thegaps 06 between thetouch electrodes 03 may specifically be classified as or comprise alongitudinal gaps 061 and ahorizontal gap 062. In order to obtain uniform distribution of the gaps in a vertical direction and a horizontal direction in the touch screen respectively, specifically, theslits 04 provided in thetouch electrode 03, may include alongitudinal slit 041 that corresponds to the gap between twoadjacent pixels 02 arranged in a row direction and ahorizontal slit 042 that corresponds to the gap between twoadjacent pixels 02 arranged in a column direction, as shown inFig. 3 . In order to ensure continuity of eachtouch electrode 03, thehorizontal slit 042 and thelongitudinal slit 041 do not extend to outside of or to exceed thetouch electrode 03. - Preferably, in the in-cell touch screen according to embodiments of the present disclosure, in order to obtain a more uniform pattern in the layer where the
touch electrodes 03 are located, a width of thelongitudinal slit 041 is generally configured to be equal to a width of the gap (such as 061) between two adjacent columes oftouch electrodes 03, and/or, a width of thehorizontal slit 042 is generally configured to be equal to a width of the gap (such as 062) between two adjacent rows oftouch electrodes 03. As an example, the widths of the gap between two adjacent columes oftouch electrodes 03 and the gap between two adjacent rows oftouch electrodes 03 generally is about 5Āµm, and are not limited herein. - In an example, in the in-cell touch screen according to the embodiments of the present disclosure, in order to ensure distribution uniformity of the
slits 04, thelongitudinal slits 041 of thetouch electrodes 03 have the same length; and/or thehorizontal slits 042 in thetouch electrodes 03 have the same length. - Preferably, in the in-cell touch screen according to embodiments of the present disclosure, in order to ensure distribution uniformity of the
slits 04, thehorizontal slits 042 of have the same arrangement pattern for all of thetouch electrodes 03, and/or thelongitudinal slits 041 have the same arrangement pattern for the all of thetouch electrodes 03. In other words, the arrangement pattern formed by the longitudinal slits and/or the horizontal slits in one of the touch electrodes is the same as that in other ones of the touch electrodes. For example, the horizontal slits in all the touch electrodes may have the same shape (such as, length, width), have the same relative positions with respective to the touch electrodes or the pixels, or may be aligned with each other in the colume direction the horizontal slits in each of the touch electrodes may be spaced from one another by the same distance, or the like; similarly, the longitudinal slits in all the touch electrodes have the same shape (for example, width, length), have the same relative positions with respect to the touch electrodes or the pixels, or may be aligned with each other in the row direction, or the longitudinal slits in each of the touch electrodes may be spaced from one another by the same distance, or the like; and/or the horizontal slits and the longitudinal slits have the same shape, or the like. - Preferably, in the in-cell touch screen according to embodiment of the present disclosure, in order to simplify the manufacturing process, the plurality of
touch electrodes 03 that are independent of one another are generally arranged in the same layer. As such, a pattern of thetouch electrodes 03 may be formed through a single patterning process, thereby simplifying manufacturing process and reducing product cost. Of course, thetouch electrodes 03 may be formed in multiple layers, which is not limited herein. - Further,in practice, the in-cell touch screen according to embodiments of the present disclosure is not only applicable to a twisted nematic (TN) type liquid crystal display screen, but also to an advanced dimension switch (ADS) type liquid crystal display screen, a high-advanced dimension switch (HADS) type liquid crystal display screen with a high aperture ratio and an in-plane switch (IPS) type liquid crystal display screen.
- Further, the in-cell touch screen according to embodiments of the present disclosure is particularly applicable to the HADS liquid crystal display screen, in which a common electrode having a slit electrode structure double as the
touch electrodes 03. That is, thetouch electrodes 03 form the common electrode layer located on the side of the lower substrate facing the upper substrate. In this instance, a touch control function may be achieved by dividing the common electrode layer into the touch electrodes based on the processes of manufacturing thelower substrate 01 in prior artd without adding additional process, thereby reducing manufacturing cost and increasing production efficiency. - Generally, a touch point density of a touch screen is in order of millimeter. Thus, in practice, a density and an occupying area of the touch electrodes may be configured according to the touch point density as required. For example, each touch electrodes is designed as a square electrode with sizes of 5mmĆ5mm. As a display density of a display screen is often in order of micron, one touchelectrode may generally correspond to a plurality of pixel in the display screen.
- Further, based on the operation principle of a touch screen, the mutual capacitance principle may be implemented in the touch screen according to embodiments of the present disclosure, such that the touch electrodes having above described structure are classified into or comprise touch driving electrodes and touch sensing electrodes, or, are configured as touch driving electrodes and touch sensing electrodes are further provided in a layer which is different from the layer where the touch driving electrodes are located. Or, the touch electrodes having above described structures is configured as a self-capacitance electrode based on the self-capacitance principle.
- The common electrode layer doubles as the touch electrodes of the touch screen provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure, thus in practice, a time-sharing drive method for a touch stage and a display stage is implemented in order to reduce interference between a display signal and a touch signal, and a display driving chip and a touch detection chip may be integrated as a single chip in practice so as to further reduce production cost.
- For example, in the driving time sequence charts shown
Figs. 5a and5b , a period of time (V-sync) during which each frame of image is displayed by the touch screen is divided into a display period (Display) and a touch period (Touch). For example, in the driving time sequence chart shownFigs. 5a and5b , the period of time for displaying one frame of image by the touch screen is 16.7ms, in which a period of 5ms is selected as the touch period and the remained period of 11.7ms is used as the display period. The two periods may be suitably adjusted according to processing ability of IC chip and will not particularly limited herein. During the display period (Display), a gate scanning signal is applied in turn to each of gate signal lines, i.e., Gate1, Gate2......Gate n, of the touch screen, grey scale signals are applied to data signal lines, and a common electrode signal is applied to the respectively touch electrodes Cx1......Cxn, thereby achieving display function of the liquid crystal display device. - During the touch period (Touch) shown in
Fig. 5a , as an example where the touch electrode is used as a self-capacitance electrode, driving signals may be applied to respective touch electrodes, Cx1......Cxn simultaneously, while feedback signals are received from the respective touch electrodes Cx1......Cxn. Alternatively, as shown inFig. 5b , driving signals may be applied to respective touch electrodes Cx1......Cxn in turn or sequentially, while feedback signals are received from the touch respectiveelectrodes Cx1......Cxn in turn or sequentially. The touch operation of the touch screen will not be limited herein. Then, the feedback signals are analysized to determine whether or not a touch operation occurs, thereby achieving a touch control function. - Further, in order to simplify manufacturing process and reduce manufacturing cost, in the in-cell touch screen accoring to embodiments of the present disclosure, the strip-shaped floating
electrode 05 connected with thetouch electrode 03 may be arranged in the same layer as and insulated from adata line 07 or a gate line on the lower substrate. In this way, during manufacturing, the strip-shaped floatingelectrode 05 may be formed in the same layer as thedata line 07 or the gate line, such that no new process is needed and only a modification to apattern of a corresponding layer is needed, thereby simplifying process steps, reducing manufacturing cost and increasing manufactuing efficiency. Further, as the strip-shaped floating electrode is made of the same conductive material as the data line or the gate line, a resistance of the touch electrode that is connected with the strip-shaped floating electrode may be reduced. - Further, as the
touch electrodes 03 in the touch screen according to the embodiments of the present disclosure comprise not only thelongitudinal slits 041 but also thehorizontal slits 042, the strip-shaped floating electrode may correspondingly comprise: longitudinal floating electrodes that are arranged at positions corresponding to thelongitudinal slits 041 and/or to the gaps between the twoadjacent touch electrodes 03 arranged in the row direction; and/or horizontal floating electrodes that are arranged at positions corresponding to thehorizontal slits 042 and/or to the gaps between the twoadjacent touch electrodes 03 arranged in the columne direction.Figs. 2 and4 only illustrate the structural schematic views of the longitudinal floating electrodes which are arranged at positions corresponding to thelongitudinal slits 041. - Further, in practice, the number of the strip-
shapedfloating electrodes 05 may be as large as possible, such that the strip-shaped floatingelectrodes 05 fill the slits of thetouch electrodes 03 as possible so as to increase the effective area of thetouch electrodes 03. Moreover, as shown inFigs. 2 and4 , each strip-shaped floatingelectrode 05 may be arranged to be not overlapped with others touchelectrodes 03 except the touch electrode that is electrically connected with the strip-shaped floating electrode, i.e., a length of each strip-shaped floatingelectrode 05 is the same as a length of thetouch electrode 03 that is electrically connected with the strip-shaped floating electrode, such that a plurality of the strip-shaped floatingelectrodes 05, which are arranged in a straight line and are connected withdifferent touch electrodes 03, may be provided, in order to increase the effective area of thetouch electrodes 03. - Further, as shown in
Fig. 2 , the touch screen according to the embodiment of the present disclosure may further includesignal lines 08 that are arranged at positions corresponding to otherlongitudinal slits 041 than the longitudinal slits where the longitudinal floating electrodes are arranged, and/or at positions corresponding to other gaps between twoadjacent touch electrodes 03 arranged in the row direction, than the gaps where the longitudinal floating electrodes are arranged. In other examples, the touch screen may further include anothersignal lines 08 that are arranged at positions corresponding to other horizontal slits than the horizontal slits where the horizontal floating electrodes are arranged, and/or at positions corresponding to other gaps between twoadjacent touch electrodes 03 arranged in the column direction, than the gaps where thehorizontal floating electrodes are arranged. In other words, thesignal line 08 may be arranged at the position corresponding to theslit 04 where no floating electrode is arranged and/or at the position corresponding to the gap between twoadjacent touch electrodes 03 where no floating electrode is arranged. The signal lines 08 are connected with respective touch electrodes03 in an one-to-one correspondence and configured to load corresponding electricals signal to thetouch electrodes 03 connected therewith. - Based on the same concept, an embodiment of the present disclosure further provides a display device, comprising the in-cell touch screen according to the above embodiments. The display device may be a mobile phone, a tablet computor, a television, a display, a notebook computor, a digital photo frame, a navigator or any other product or component that has a display function. Implementation of the display device may refer to the above embodiments of the in-cell touch screen and the duplicating description is not repeated.
- Embodiments of the present disclosure provide the in-cell touch screen and the display device, in which the touch electrodes of the touch screen are provided with the slits at the regions corresponding to the gaps between the two adjacent pixels so as to ensure uniform distribution of the slits in the touch electrodes and the gaps between the touch electrodes and further to avoid defective problems of bright line or dark line appearing in the in-cell touch screen. Further, the touch screen is further provided with the strip-shaped floating electrode that is electrically connected with the touch electrodes. The strip-shaped floating electrodes is arranged at the position corresponding to the slit in the touch electrodes and/or at the position corresponding to the gap between two adjacent touch electrodes. The strip-shaped floating electrode at least partially fills or covers the slit in the touch electrodes, thus the problem that the effective area of the touch electrode is reduced due to provision of the slits in the touch electrode may be alleviated.
- It will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes and modifications may be made therein without departing from the spirit of the present disclosure, and are intended to be included in scope of the invention provided that they fall into the scope claimed by the attached claims or its equivalent.
